Definition: (ditransitive) To give (someone or something) food to eat.
Alright class, settle down, letās take a look,
At āfeeding,ā a word thatās quite simple and took
A little bit of study, a small little quest,
To understand its meaning, put it to the test!
The dictionary tells us, clear as can be,
āTo give someone or something food, you see!ā
(Ditransitive!) That's a fancy phrase, itās true,
But letās break it down for me and for you.
Think of a puppy, so tiny and sweet,
Needing nourishment, a yummy treat!
You
feed
the puppy ā thatās giving it food,
A thoughtful action, understood!
Or maybe your grandma, with stories to tell,
Needs a delicious meal, a comforting spell.
You
feed
her dinner, a wonderful deed,
Planting happiness and a joyful need.
So āfeedingā means delivering something tasty and good,
To someone or something ā understood?
Itās about providing nourishment with care,
A simple action beyond compare!
Do you have any questions for me today?
